Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen are undefeated in 21 Bundesliga outings.

Eintracht Frankfurt are all set to lock horns with Bayer Leverkusen on matchday 24 of the Bundesliga 2024-25 edition at home. They are in third place on the league table. They have won 12 of their 23 league matches this season. Bundesliga defending champions Bayer Leverkusen are in the second spot and will be looking to continue their winning run.

Eintracht Frankfurt faced a dominating loss in their last Bundesliga game against Bayern Munich. Till the first half, it looked like an equal contest but later Bayern muscled in four goals to win the match and secure three points. This will keep Frankfurt underconfident and they are now eight points away from the second-placed Leverkusen.

Bayer 04 Leverkusen on the other hand are coming in after securing an easy win over Holstein Kiel. They went in to score two goals in the first half and later defended well and maintained a clean sheet. Head coach Xabi Alonso will be keen to grab those three vital points.
